Voter Registration
In order to vote, you must be registered as a voter in Ohio. The Cuyahoga County Board of Elections or the Secretary of State’s office must RECEIVE registration and change of address or name forms by 9 p.m. 30 days before an election to be valid for that election.
Voter registration cards can be obtained from the County Board of Elections.
If you are registered anywhere in Ohio and have changed your address, you may still vote. There are three options:
- Go to your new polling place on Election Day.
- Go to the Cuyahoga County Board of Elections, 2925 Euclid Ave., during the absentee voting period or on Election Day.
- If you move within your precinct or change your name, you may report the change at your polling place on Election Day.
The Secretary of State's office maintains a phone line to provide information on registration and voting for deaf citizens. The TTY number is (614) 466-0562.
People who are physically or mentally disabled or illiterate may be assisted by anyone of their own choice, except an employer or his agent, a union officer or a candidate whose name appears on the ballot. Two poll workers may assist the voter, one from each party. No one who assists a voter may disclose any information on how that person voted.
